Looks like you don't know, there is 2 cars already released. Nissan Primera BTCC and BMW 320i

Yeah have those already sir. The BMW is excellent espec the sound

 

[Canqui]

hi there !!!!!!! any update for Laguna ?

 

[MSan4]

Any updates? Laguna, mondeo, peugeot?

 

[Smokin.wheatley]

Yes please!!

 

[McGherkin]

I think Patrik is more interested in making a game of his own at the moment, doing loads of UE4 stuff.

I hope this project doesn't get ditched.

 

[Alex Harkett]

I think there are multiple people working on different cars, in their own free time. The cars will appear eventually. You can’t rush perfection!

Audi is getting some nice progress but yeah, we have at least 2 cars good to go, but waiting to be started in physics
and other cars with updates on physics have basic meshes

this is where project of this magnitude gets tricky, it's multiple people doing multiple steps, so it's hard to align everything on same car so that it can be released

Laguna has been unfortunatelly halted a bit, becasue A3DR got busy with his actual job,
Volvo / Peugot are almost done ( to a very similar level like Primera) for the mesh/textures, but no physics
Audi - mesh is slowly getting to a poitn where BMW is currently
BMW - no work being done as I work on Audi
Mondeo - very nice progress on exterior , but updates on interior too, but haven't been worked on for quite a while as the artist is busy with real life stuff
Alfa - decent progress has been made, but has been put on hold for few months now as the artist working on it got busy with real life stuff
Vectra / Accord / Volvo 850 Wagoon has been on hold for quite some time, random artists picked those up but then left with not much progress, so very little progress on those cars

not sure if I'm forgetting anything

and yes,I have been playing with idea of making my own game using unreal4, initialkly seeing if the physics engine is good enough for a decent racing game, more on arcade side of things but beliveable , ..something similar to Art of Rally,

but I'm putting this on hold now a bit, waiting for new release of unreal 4.26, whihc has entirely new physics ,that feels much better then what's currently there in 4.25

although, when compared to ArtOfRally, circuit racing will also need AI and that could be a huge problem, so yeah,who knows
I was hoping to makeget this to a point that it looks like demo, and then maybe doing some kickstarter campaign to see if there is enougn interest to make this an actual game

Thanks for the big update, Patrik! Totally understand it can't be easy for so many people to have their lives align perfectly to make things happen sooner. We know perfection can't be rushed...

Please guys, don't lose the enthusiam on this project. For me this is the most anticipated project on simracing scene at the moment. Not excited about anything else on simracing (being others sims or mods).

Thank you all again!

I could see Motorsport Games becoming irritable if you're considered to be stepping on their toes, especially seeing as they have the BTCC license...

They have the BTCC license for current cars. Besides, literally every mod for Assetto Corsa (besides the KTM X-Bow GT4 which is more like free official content than an aftermarket mod) is using someone's IP. Generally speaking if you're making someone pay then you need to do what the likes of RSS etc do and change things just enough to not need to license, but generally nobody goes after freeware since there's no profits to take a cut of.

 

[Patrik Marek]

well, time to switch to BTCC again
let's get this done!

 

[DriftApprentice]

I know the following is of little constructive meaning, but: Yes, just yes. I love it.

[carlos quintao]

Bring it on one more car to add to the wonderfull BTCC field .

 

[Patrik Marek]

Volvo S40 is the closest one to be done ,from model point of view, and it also has high detail interior - unlike all my cars haha

but yeah, Audi and Primera are my favorite of that era, so I will make sure I do them justice

Personally waiting for the Peugeot 406 that remind me TAXI movie. Love this car.

that one is quite far along too, done by same artist as the Volvo

still have to find a way to make the lights look better, the refraction shader might help

 

[McGherkin]

I honestly cannot wait until we have a full grid of these epic cars. One of the most exciting race series of all time.
